Terms

What these terms cover

They cover this website and the waitlist on it. They are not a software licence: CoCAD the application is still being built, cannot be downloaded, and is not for sale. When it ships it will come with its own licence agreement and terms of sale, and those — not this page — will govern the software.

By using this site or joining the waitlist, you agree to what follows.

You must be 13 or older

This site is not directed at children, and you may not join the waitlist if you are under 13. If you are under 18, please ask a parent or guardian before giving us your email address. See the privacy policy for what happens if a younger child's address reaches us: we delete it.

What joining the waitlist does — and does not — do

• It does not cost anything and it is not a purchase, a pre-order, a reservation, or a contract to buy. No payment details are asked for anywhere on this site.
• It gets you launch news and occasional development updates, and a place in the queue. Beta invitations go out in queue order, and your position is a queue number, not a promise about a date.
• It is not a promise that CoCAD will ship, ship on time, or ship with any particular feature. Everything described on this site is work in progress, and plans that turn out to be wrong get changed rather than honoured out of embarrassment.
• You can leave whenever you like. Every email carries a one-click unsubscribe, and hello@cocad.ai will delete your record on request.
• We may remove an entry that is obviously fake, automated, or abusive, and we may close the waitlist or change how invitations are ordered — if the order ever changes, the waitlist gets told why.

Fair use of the site

Read it, share it, quote it, link to it. Please do not attack it, attempt to break into it, submit other people's email addresses, or hammer it with automated requests. Ordinary crawling that respects robots.txt is welcome — including by AI crawlers, which are explicitly allowed.

Our content, and yours

The text, images, video, code and design of this site belong to CoCAD, except where something is credited to someone else. CoCAD is our product name and brand. You may quote reasonable extracts with attribution and a link, and you may write about, review, or criticise CoCAD freely — what you may not do is present the site's material as your own or use our name in a way that suggests we endorse or supplied something we did not.

Open-source components used in the software carry their own licences, and those licences are published with the application when it is released.

No warranty, and the limit of what we owe you

This website is provided as it is. We try hard to keep it accurate and online, but we do not guarantee that it will always be available, that every statement about unfinished software will remain true, or that the site is free of errors. To the fullest extent the law allows, CoCAD is not liable for indirect or consequential loss arising from your use of this site. Nothing here limits liability that cannot legally be limited — including for fraud — and if you are a consumer, your statutory rights are untouched by anything on this page.

Other people's services

Some links lead off this site, and some parts of it are run by companies we have chosen to work with — the ones named in the privacy policy. Their own terms govern their services, and we cannot control what is on a page we do not run.

Changes to these terms

We may update this page as the site grows — a docs section, a download, a shop each bring their own rules. The date at the top always says when it last changed, and anything that materially affects people already on the waitlist gets an email rather than a silent edit.

Where we are, and how to reach us

CoCAD is operated from the United States by the individual building it. A formal business entity, its address, and the governing-law clause that goes with it will be named here before anything is sold — publishing a jurisdiction we have not actually chosen would be exactly the kind of legal-sounding fiction this site is trying to avoid. Until then, questions, complaints and requests all go to the same place: hello@cocad.ai.
